Our offices provide general dentisty to patients of all ages. We offer services such as preventative, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry to our patients. We also offer wisdom teeth surgery and root canal therapy in cases that do not require a specialist referral.
We believe that one of our strengths is educating our patients. Whether it be through doctor to patient dialogue, pamphlets located throughout the office, or through specific DVDs for certain treatments of dentistry, we believe that educating the patient is the cornerstone to maintaining a healthy smile.
An added feature of our practice is that there is always one of our dentists "on call" to address dental emergencies when the offices are closed in the evenings or on the weekends.
